"Astra Titanus delivers hex and counter space war action. It presents a classic wargame and story theme using intuitive, well-explained mechanics. The card driven AI is excellent and a great solution to figuring out how the bad guy will act that can be so challenging in many solo games." - Daron Patton (RPG.net)

Chris Taylor'sAstra Titanus is a solitaire game of space opera battles featuring fleets of highly advanced military starships that are dwarfed by a single alien robotic ship - a Star Titan.

At the end of the Exodus Wars - the first interstellar battle between four post-diaspora star empires - a gigantic alien war machine devastated the frontier worlds. The war-weary militaries of all four empires joined together as one and sent massive fleets of capital ships and escorts to the beleaguered frontier worlds at faster-than-light (FTL) speeds.

The Titan is controlled by cards that determine movement, special weapon use, and targeting priorities. The human ships "jump" across space using FTL drives. There are energy beams that shatter small moons and missiles that accelerate to a substantial fraction of c, the speed of light.

As Admiral, you must send your sailors out into the void against the overwhelming might of the Astra Titanus!
